By Eileen Tilson/ @tktalt_tn What is your favorite part about Thanksgiving? Is it the food, family, and the ever so pleasant effects of tryptophan after filling your belly with turkey? Well for us it is The Stuffing, and i don’t mean the squishy bready stuff. Next wednesday, November 23, our favorite boys Manchester Orchestra & Favorite […]
By Ellen Eldridge; photo by Cindy Frey Atlanta-based band, Mastodon, recently released its fifth full-length, The Hunter. While less progressive than Crack the Skye, it shows a return to riff-based writing that both fans and the boys in the band can enjoy live. The finale of the current tour takes place at Atlanta’s Tabernacle on […]
By Ellen Eldridge I’ll be honest; with a name borrowed from a Smith’s song and a history of hooking up in Junior High School, Girl In A Coma instantly recalled my first attempts at starting a girl group. My basement band never found fruition because my best friend and I couldn’t come up with a […]
By: Catrina Maxwell These four guys from Cincinatti, Ohio have burst onto the scene and seem to be making their mark in the music world. Their independently-released album “i want! i want!” has hit the airwaves and fans seem to really like the “poppy art-rock quartet” as described by SPIN Magazine. Currently, they are working on […]
By Amanda Miles Nashville roots-rocker Will Hoge has a knack for illustrating tales of sorrow, joy and triumph in his music. His latest album, Number Seven, is no exception. A follow up to 2009’s powerful The Wreckage, Number Seven examines the human conditions of love, loss, betrayal and grief. It seems seven just may be […]
By Eileen Tilson The Meat Puppets are just one of those bands you pledge your allegiance to. With fellow dedicated pledgees like Nirvana, Soundgarden, and countless other iconic bands, you are in very great company. We chatted with the legendary Curt Kirkwood as he was feeding his birds, and the conversation is filled with new […]
By Eileen Tilson and Leila Regan-Porter Meeting one of your favorite bands on the planet can be a bit intimidating. They could be shy, irritable, or just plain assholes, but not Elbow. Before another epic show at Center Stage tonight, Elbow sat down and chatted with Atlanta Music Guide, and the conversation was literally sitting […]
By Amanda Miles Sunny Sweeney was named “One to Watch in 2011” by Country Weekly, praise that would prove prophetic as Sunny had the highest charting debut single for a female country artist in over four years. Her new album Concrete debuted to accolades and fans could not get enough of the smash hit ‘From a […]
By Eileen Tilson Growing up in the height of 99X, pretty much everyone I knew was a fan of Jump Little Children. Some of my fondest memories involve being at Big Day Out, watching JLC jam out with Ben Folds Five. Jay Clifford, the man with the golden voice, is back from his hiatus, with […]
By Eileen Tilson Rolling Stone calls them the next “Band to Watch,” a bit of a surprise for a band that is barely legal to drink. Kentucky rockers, Sleeper Agent, are used to hanging with the big kids, though. After being referred to Mom & Pop Records, via their pals Cage the Elephant, Sleeper Agent […]
By Eileen Tilson If you’re a country fan in Atlanta, then you might have heard that latest little twangness from Atlanta band Reluctant Saints‘ latest album Long Drive, on The Bull. Produced by Jonathan Beckner, the album features guest performances by Hammond B-3 legends Ike Stubblefield (Eric Clapton, Bonnie Raitt, Stevie Wonder) and Rev. Oliver Wells (Earth, Wind […]
By Eileen Tilson You have to a pretty big set of cahones to submit a video to the DragonCon Music Video Contest, but then Atlanta favorites The District Attorneys have proven themselves not to be scared of a challenge. The band has spent the past year gaining a consistent following, and is headlining at Smith’s […]
By Ellen Eldridge Superchunk’s latest release Majesty Shredding comes across like a blast of fun jams; songs one would want to hear on the radio while driving to the beach for spring break. Making “Learned to Surf” the single proves a great idea as its ambience captures the feeling of the album. The guitar intro […]
